How do I bake cookies from scratch?

Baking cookies from scratch is fun! You'll need flour, sugar, butter, eggs, and baking soda. Do you have a specific type of cookie in mind?

I want to make chocolate chip cookies.

Great choice! You'll need 2 1/4 cups of flour, 1 cup of sugar, 1 cup of brown sugar, 1 cup of butter, 2 eggs, 1 tsp of vanilla, and 2 cups of chocolate chips. Would you like the step-by-step instructions?

Yes, please! What are the steps?

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). 2. Cream together the butter, sugar, and brown sugar. 3. Beat in the eggs and vanilla. 4. Gradually mix in the flour and baking soda. 5. Stir in the chocolate chips. 6. Drop spoonfuls onto a baking sheet and bake for 9-11 minutes.

How do I know when they are done?

Cookies are done when the edges are golden brown but the centers look slightly underbaked. They will continue to cook on the baking sheet after you take them out.
